It's been really, really top of mind here in NYC after a guy walked into a Midtown building last year and gunned down people.

Love it. This is all soo very Nelson Bighetti.

Nelson did quite fine in the end.

In 2022 "a little birdy pointed out an accelerometer" to iFixit on their teardown of an M2 MBA: https://www.ifixit.com/News/62674/m2-macbook-air-teardown-ap...

They could not figure out what it was for.

Ars Technica commenters at the time believed it was to record drops so Apple repair teams could rebuff requests :)

It's not actually in some capsule separate from the page, though. CSS variables leak in to it from the "light"/regular DOM. You can query elements in it from the host with `shadowRoot.querySelector()`.

The elements also inherit styles from parents: https://open-wc.org/guides/knowledge/styling/styles-piercing...

You can do a closed root but last I checked that had profound accessibility issues.

(As an aside this is why the linked article is incorrect in saying this: "global styles don’t leak in (unless you explicitly allow them).")

> CSS variables leak in to it from the "light"/regular DOM.

Why do people keep talking about those things as if they were problems?

They ain't! Long live the cascade!

But when the desired outcome is "complete separation from the surrounding page," those are pretty serious problems!

There are entire artists on my 2011 iTunes library that no longer exist online. The pace of data rot is genuinely hard to believe.

My apps are mostly arranged by install date. You just learn where everything is :) You stop using street signs after enough drives home.

e: ahhh frick this is just stupid AI spam for this dude’s project.

Supports… some ESLint rules. It is not “easy” to add support to Oxlint for the rules it does not.

The projects at my work that “switched” to it now use both Eslint and Oxlint. It sucks, but at least a subset of errors are caught much faster.

Vite+ is not “this dude’s project”, it’s made by the team that makes all the tools discussed in this article.

Yeah, no. Real human here.

Oxlint does support core rules out of the box but has support for JS plugins[0] as mentioned. If you don't rely on a custom parser (so svelte or vue component for example) things just work. Even react compiler rules[1].

Definitely read AI tonality into the earlier comment, noticed it didn't call out your relationship to it, then saw that you had a comment history plugging it, and made assumptions.

My apologies. I'll follow through to the links next time.

So as long as you only need the pre-installed software it's a great device eh. I'm the PC to your game console here. Parser extension? Piece of cake for us. Heck just to showboat we actually extended our es6 parser from our es3 parser, and then implemented each later standard as an extension of the earlier one. We're able to run parsers for pretty much any programming language, and making them super easy to write. We can do cross-language transforms with ease. We can be our own system of version control! We're going to be a real threat to GitHub. VoidZero is not even trying to do this stuff. Your vision is just so... small.

As said in another comment: Curious to see what you are coming up! Talk is cheap

This broad…side, perhaps?

$ man bom

> The bill of materials file appeared in NeXTSTEP to support installation. The file format was updated and extended for Mac OS X 10.0. The format was extended to support 64 bit file sizes with OS X 10.3.

orly

  $ man bom
  No manual entry for bom

rly. Ran on two different Macs. Works up to Tahoe 26.2.

Maybe depends on developer tools installed?

Is the feedback that instead of a short web search, I could "simply" have checked the man page on a different computer, after confirming dev tools are installed?

What a place HN is that this is the default assumption of intent, lol

But like, you knew you were being a bit of a smart aleck in your first reply. I was just matching snark-for-snark ;)

Truly beautiful site. Someone put a lot of time into this.
